I’m a senior cybersecurity leader with over 20 years of experience. This is a new anonymous account, but I’m an active redditor in this sub as well as others. No real contributory value in my post, just complaining (rhetorically).

I gotta admit as I struggle to sleep tonight that I’m ready to just walk from my current employer, without even searching first. I’ve been put into a position where my ethics are being compromised. This is the first employer in ages that has lived it’s corporate values - up till now. Leaving would set me back a month or two, and I’m only 5-7 years from retirement, but what do you do when you’re in a situation like this? Nothing is worth feeling this way.

Is there a company these days that actually operates in an ethical way? Because I’ll tell you, it’s been a long time since I’ve seen one.
